I saw the thread about refurbishing the 41-231 switch:
http://philcoradio.com/phorum/showthread...ght=41-231
I am wondering if anyone has a source for an original switch and/or push-button.
I bought a pretty little 41-231 which is close to perfect but the last owner discarded the original switch. I now have no button or switch.
Anyone know of a source or have a spare they would be willing to sell?
Thanks

Are you saying the entire pushbutton assembly is missing?

Yes the switch has been replace by some klutz with a hardware store toggle switch. The rest of the radio is all there and I would like for this to be original. Looking for a switch to rebuild but especially with a button. I can figure out how to adapt a newer switch I think (I hope).
Thanks

So you will be needing a pushbutton assembly from one of the following:

41-225
41-226
41-231
41-245
41-246
